Solution

The correct options are
A Urban Planning
C Waste management
Urban planning refers to the planning and designing of urban areas. If houses and areas are planned and equipped with decent facilities such as electricity and water supply, the number of slums in a city can be reduced. Another solution is waste management. Disposing of waste in a controlled and eco-friendly manner can prevent disease outbreak and reduce pollution.
